These are the new CAT offering.  I agree with Michael that the black and white pictures make it hard to tell. I think I would still use the inner coating if available. The outside in a silver or black as that was in period . Then there is anything applied in period was good for a very limited time before it looked like crap. I was always taking out the BBQ black hi temp paint on other car's.

Happy new year to all.
There is a technique called metal spray that I had applied to my stock exhaust headers, and it prevents rust without looking strange. I had them coated with stainless steel when my engine was rebuilt, and it?s prevented any rust from occurring. It simply looks like a new metal header, but without any rust. I like it, but I?m not so much an absolute stickler for concourse originality.

 Don't know about the LAT 73 headers, but "other" headers of the period were usually  satin black/semi gloss black from the manufacturer.

 Brian,
That is really a " refer to the judging guidelines" question.
1.? My personal opinion is while the coating is preferable as it protects from rust and can offer advantages of reduced engine bay temps and keeps heat in the exhaust ports..? It isnt stock... If you coat to appear original finish its up to the judges to spot...? If you have these coated and another car has them painted .. I'd pin you the point...??
2. The LAT brochure shows what appears to be a satin black finish on them.. But its a B/W brochure..? And..? Maybe they painted them for the sales images .... So take that for what its worth.. So if ceramic coating a satin black Would be the first choice...
Just my .02..
Brochure Image attached.
